The last 7 years of agencies lowballing and padding their agencies with cheap, inexperienced creatives has come back to bite them.

Clients want more knowledgeable, experienced creatives working on their business. Who knew?

God I really wish I had done that. I came out a week before lockdown and I did night classes. It’s been so brutal. Did freelance until recently, then took FT at a small, not so great shop.

It was a mental health decision honestly. Still hunting like crazy for something better.

My friends from those schools didn’t have to go long before They found work. I couldn’t get an interview for 6 months

Does anyone happen to have a referral or can anyone give DM me some insight into what a CSA role would look like? I appreciate it.
